"Bunny poo" (if you will pardon the expression. : >) is a great favorite
of the gardeners at all of the Heritage Garden sites here in BC. They
told me that it is the only manure that can be used fresh, and I have
had good success with it myself, never encountering any problems using
it directly from the source. Unfortunately our last source didn't make
the move to our new farm, so we will be depending on aged stuff from the
horses. (Did you know that a horse is good for 50#/day of the stuff.
Pays to garden if you own one or more of these creatures!)
Wishing you all great gardening weather from Sharron here in the monsoon
part of the desert climate of Super Natural British Columbia.

btw, anyone heard anything yet about the winners in the CIS Silent
Auction? We're sure hoping a few of those offerings will be making there
way here soon!
